Hot Stone Massage Colorado Springs

What is a Hot Stone Massage?

At Absolute Body Balance in Colorado Springs, our trained therapists use heated stones to warm the tissues allowing a deep relaxation to flow into the muscle. Stones are placed both on the body (as you see in stock photos everywhere) as well as used as an extension of the therapist’s hand. Drinking water before and after your massage helps to increase blood flow and avoid feeling run down or sore after the massage. The heat from a hot stone massage can dehydrate your muscles, much like sitting in a hot tub or sauna, so drink up!

What’s the purpose of a Hot Stone Massage in Colorado Springs?

Using the stones as an extension of the hand, the strokes are long and soothing, melting the tension with each pass of the stone. This is an excellent way to warm up tight muscles and prepare the body for deeper work. A hot stone massage is also used as a tool to target those tense, crunchy areas while melting the muscle. This allows for deeper work that isn’t as painful and can even help extend the results of the massage.
